Hi all. I am looking to get my first tablet but am overwhelmed by the choice out there. Let me start with what I'll be using it for.
Mainly for live streaming tv, internet use, watching movies for the kids, plug into tv for playback if possible. I'm not really going to use it for games, maybe just games that'll keep my 6 year old entertained.
My main reason is so that I can stream sports on the go from my satellite receiver at home. So bearing this in mind, would tethering to my mobile be good enough, or would i need a 3g tablet.
It would also be handy if I could just buy a payg data plan when I'm abroad so I'm guessing I'd need a 3g version, or would mifi do the trick?
As I'll be streaming sports, etc I guess the ipad is not fully suited to me, do to the flash issue.
I've got it down to the Asus transformer, Asus transformer prime(no 3g), Asus transformer pad 300(3g coming out soon), Motorola xoom, samsung galaxy tab and bringing up the rear, the Archos g9 101( not really a looker).
I need at least a 9 inch screen and don't really want to spend more than about £350. If there is any other recommendations, especially less pricey alternatives, please fire away.
Thanks all
